Really want to go. I will make my decision by tonight.
Are you staying for the 3 days Romford, or longer?

Re: Official KUMB tour Toronto 2008
I am planning on taking the whole family up from Chicago. Depending on how many takers, I might put on a bus or van. 10 hour drive from Chicago. Also I am good friends with the most rocking club in Toronto (The Horseshoe Tavern). They are well connected in that town. Put on most the concerts in Toronto and know the crowd that run the stadium. Would be a good boozer to spend the evenings.
Re: Official KUMB tour Toronto 2008
Guys, Toronto is pretty cool. I go often, actually going in April.
Anyway, my tip is for flights use http://www.canadianaffair.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;, consistently
cheaper than anywhere else. My flight in April is £198
Irons!

Southwest has a $99 each way webfare, non-stop Tampa to Buffalo. Jet Blue is about a $250 round trio, also Buffalo. I think Buffalo to Toronto is a 2-hour drive. I’m more than a little nervous about flying Southwest though.

Mid/Late 80's QPR/Luton...
http://www.latimes.com/sports/soccer/la ... 0360.story" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
3 Officials at MLS headquarters in New York are playing it coy but it's no secret which team will provide the opposition at the annual All-Star game, scheduled for July 24 in Toronto.
That team will be England's Thames Ironworks FC, founded by shipyard workers in 1895 and more commonly known by the name it adopted in 1900: West Ham United.
West Ham, once home to 1966 World Cup winners Bobby Moore and Martin Peters, now features such recognized internationals as Sweden's Freddy Ljungberg, Peru's Nolberto Solano and Wales' Craig Bellamy, not to mention American defender Jonathan Spector.
Spector, incidentally, has joined the U.S. team for Thursday's winner-take-all semifinal against Canada in the CONCACAF Olympic qualifying tournament in Nashville.
West Ham, meanwhile, is currently in 10th place in the English Premier League. The Hammers are known for their stylish play, but that could be put to the test on Toronto FC's unpopular and uncompromising artificial surface.

Re: Official KUMB tour Toronto 2008
I did the train from Toronto to Chicago once. Big seats, cheapish, someone else drove and I drank beer all the way. When you are on the Amtrak bit the beer is dreadful, but when the train changes to VIA (the Canadian bit) the booze improves dramatically! Leave the car in the US boys. You have to park it in Toronto for 3 days/nights and it ain't cheap.

I was there last year, and the artificial turf looked okay to me.
Great atmosphere in the South Stand, lots of ex-pat E London and Essex there, along with a whole mob of lunatic jocks, italians, serbs, croats and god knows who else. All of them just want to watch the game.
Check out what happened when ex-Millwall Danny Dichio scored Toronto's first goal in the MLS a while back: about 30 seconds or so into this clip http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQvz01OKrsA
You'd get a lifetime ban at UP for doing that . . .
Oh yeah, check out our ex-goalie providing the colour commentary about 1min40 into the clip.
Finally, any of you lot making the trip will have a blast - great city, great birds, lotsa fun, killer time.
